[English]

I cover my eyes, pretending the night hasn’t fallen, not looking at your beauty.

I stay silent as roses crowd around you, feeling like the odd one out.

I keep the humility I should, my love silent and tasteless.

White roses, unblessed by your grace, eventually turn gray.

I can’t compare to him, him, him, him, ah, ah, ah.

But I’m more obedient than they are.

My love for you is deep, incredibly complex.

Yet it’s simple, almost terrifyingly so.

I can’t compare to him, him, him, him, ah, ah, ah.

I want to let go, but my heart won’t listen.

My love stands bare before you, without a trace of disguise.

Eager, yet filled with fear.

...

I just happen to think of you in silence all day.

I just occasionally imagine you by my side.

Across from me, your gentle eyes.

Still whispering apologies.

I often lose sleep at night for no reason.

As if I can only apologize to those around me.

I’m not that pitiful.

I’m just used to always putting others first.

I can’t compare to him, him, him, him, ah, ah, ah.

But I’m more obedient than they are.

My love for you is deep, incredibly complex.

Yet it’s simple, almost terrifyingly so.

I can’t compare to him, him, him, him, ah, ah, ah.

I want to let go, but my heart won’t listen.

My love stands bare before you, without a trace of disguise.

Eager, yet filled with fear.

I can’t compare to him, him, him, him, ah, ah, ah.

I want to let go, but my heart won’t listen.

My love for you is deep, incredibly complex.

Yet it’s simple, almost terrifyingly so.

I can’t compare to him, him, him, him, ah, ah, ah.

I want to let go, but my heart won’t listen.

My love stands bare before you, without a trace of disguise.

Eager, yet filled with fear.

[Vietnamese]

蒙上眼假裝天沒黑 不看你的美

閉上嘴你身旁扎堆玫瑰 我像是另類

我保持應有的謙卑 愛無聲無味

白薔薇得不到你的恩惠 終究染上了灰

我比不上他他他他啊啊啊

可卻比他們都聽話

對你的愛深沉的無比複雜

也單純的可怕

我比不上他他他他啊啊啊

想放下心卻不聽話

我的愛在你面前一絲不掛

熱切又帶著害怕

只是碰巧想你沉默一整天

只是偶爾幻想你在我身邊

在我的對面 你溫柔的眼

還是說著道歉

只是經常夜里會無故失眠

好像只能對身邊的人抱歉

我不太可憐

只是習慣永遠都去為了别人成全

我比不上他他他他啊啊啊

可卻比他們都聽話

對你的愛深沉的無比複雜

也單純的可怕

我比不上他他他他啊啊啊

想放下心卻不聽話

我的愛在你面前一絲不掛

熱切又帶著害怕

我比不上他他他他啊啊啊

想放下心卻不聽話

對你的愛深沉的無比複雜

也單純的可怕

我比不上他他他他啊啊啊

想放下心卻不聽話

我的愛在你面前一絲不掛

熱切又帶著害怕
